  • He was livin in Luxembourg til 17, in fact...

  • Brian..........wow, great singer

  • brian = love <3

  • My brave Lancelot! like i've said "how old is she?" gongli* awesome video, with a awesome voice that reminds me a female friend that sings like david bowie and bryan molko! :p

  • someone was asking for the chords, it's actually really easy...

    G, Em, A, C

    it only changes at the part, "and all the fat, skinny people," where you have to go from the usual C to Am, C, Am, C, G, C, D, Am, C, and then back to G.

    You'll figure it out.

  • Am*, not A.

  • I love brian you are the best

  • brian rocks !!!!!

  • <3 <3 <3

  • he´s just amazing...intelligent,handsome­...some guys make fun of him but it's just jealousy speaking louder....they're jealous because inspite of being bissexual girls love him....BRIAN YOU'RE THE MAN*

  • OMFG it's so HOT when he speaks french!!

  • i think that brian is one of the best singers alive...fuckin good

  • anyone know the chords to this song???? plz? :D

  • google " 5 years guitar tabs" and you'll find some :D

  • Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing

    News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in

    News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying

    Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying

    ... mhm,i love placebo and david bowie <3

  • brian molko speaks french???

  • Funny, he lived in Luxembourg!!!

  • come on! of course he does

  • yea!!! and he speaks fench so good !! =)

  • actually its peruvian

  • It is great song and brian performed it very nice! Brian Molko 4ever!!!

  • this is just fucking great

  • Bowie shows more emotion in his version, but Brian has a better voice..and therefore can sing the song on a different level, both versions are good in different ways, no need to compare them...thats just stupid

  • both brian molko and david bowie sound great doing this, because its an amasing song. i almost cry at the sound of brians voice now.

  • Both Brian and David Bowie sound great doing this song just different sounds as one is much older therefore has a mature voice. Bowie is a legend of that no one can deny and usually most dont.

  • I think Bowie's always had a voice fitting of an older man, since early 20s.

    Five Years was first put to tape when Bowie was far younger than Brian.

    Ofcourse this doesn't affect your statement at all really, I'm only saying :) :P

  • When i listen to the original, i hear a soul i bowies voice. it envokes fellings. This version seems soulless and thus, meaningless.

  • no way man, i know what you meen but i fink he has choosen to cover the song for a reason and he blatently relates to it. dont know love both versions soooooooooo much.

  • Brian sing better than Bowie

  • sooo beautyful

  • sorry for double-posting :-[

  • when i first saw this video i had to watch it the whole day long. it's wonderful, but i wouldn't say it's better than the original song

  • when i first saw this video i had to watch it the whole day long, it's wonderful, but i would not say that it's better than the original song...

  • Oh come on. Of course it is better. David Bowie's version is good but boring :) That's my opinion :)

  • I just fucking cried.

  • better then bowie? i think not. placebo is good, one of the better bands from recent times. but no not better.

  • amazing amazing amazing!

  • Énorme chanson de plus avec la voix de Brian

  • really good cover by the beautiful brian, this is bettter that the original

  • Might be the stupidest thing ever posted globally.

  • Brian also says, for those who don't speak french :"This is one of the first song I learnt to play on guitar, and that's also why I wanted to play it today"

  • waaah this song is so pretty, and this sounds so much better than bowie. looks better too.

  • placebo é perfeito! e o brian molko é orgastico!

  • loves the trex cover with bowie

  • He said, it's'nt the most famous Bowie Song. It come from a realy important album. I luv it because it's realy important in our world, she is realy apocaliptic...

    Ok ;)

    Voilà, amis francais, pour que cela soit accessible à tout le monde ^

  • J adore cette chanson elle est tellement emouvant ! Je pouvais l ecouter en boucle!

    Beauiful songs with Brian s voice! I love how he sings!

    Placebo für immer

  • the announcer asks brain about the song asking "its not his best known song, is it, brian?" and brian says "no, its not the best known but it comes from a very well known album called 'ziggy stardust and the spiders from mars' and it's the first song on the album. and i think it's message still has worth today because it's apocolyptic."

    and then at the end he says "thats the 1st song that i learned to play on the guitar and thats why i played it"

  • aww that's so cute

  • cool its the first song i learnt to! as it was bowie who inspired me to play guitar. awsome

  • superbe mais trop courte ! ^^ Vive Placebo !

  • yes^^ but very nice cover

  • Could someone please translate what brian says!
